Re: Off Topic
Years ago, we threw them anywhere in the downtown, especially in mailboxes, and it dogs' shits, and we also tried to keep them in our hands as long as possible before they burst, which was quite dangerous 
Re: Off Topic
That was a bit of a crazy thing to do.

Re: Off Topic

I also started using a trick I learned myself with coin-operated vending machines (single quarter ones, where you'd put the quarter in the slot and twist the knob until the item came out) when I was 12. I'd put the quarter in the slot and twist it slowly until I heard the click where it released the item. If the quarter was still in the slot (you can't turn it back if it wasn't), I'd twist it back and then forward until I heard it again (getting me another), and did it until I was satisfied. Nowadays I don't use them anymore and one more quarter isn't that important...

Re: Off Topic
I have a trick for big vending machines. I have a dollar coin with a small hole in it, and so I tied a string around it, and I stuck it in the machine, and when it registered, I could pull it out and do it again. And get change for however much I wanted. Highway robbery.

Re: Off Topic

I've heard of that one before--how did you get the hole in the coin?

Re: Off Topic
I use that trick too. It was invented by none other than Top Cat.
Re: Off Topic
You can hack some of the vending machines actually..
But yeah, I've tried the coin trick a few times too... It was pretty fun.

Re: Off Topic
I might try it again soon. Just hope I don't get arrested.

Try to hide what you're doing with your hand 
Re: Off Topic
Do all vending machines have CCTV cameras nearby?

I don't think it's a bad thing. There is far too much delinquency in France.Xenon09 wrote:Correction, we have a lot of CCTV cameras. They hide them.
Re: Off Topic
CCTV cams are definitely good, they're even designed to look like lights
Well they do
